Written by on 8 May 2024
The Constitutional Court has upheld a law imposing up to one year in prison for anyone harassing women at abortion clinics, rejecting a challenge from Vox.
By a seven to four vote, the court dismissed concerns over vagueness, affirming the law’s clarity and necessity in protecting women’s rights to abortion and freedom from coercion.
Minister of Equality, Ana Redondo, hailed the decision as a victory for women’s reproductive and sexual rights.
